The Stockholm Jury of Appeals has now met and ruled that Rimmer did not gain an advantage when he stepped inside the rail between the 500m and 600m mark, that the incident was caused by a bump from Michael Kivuna, and therefore Rimmer should be reinstated in the results.

IAAF Rule 163.4 a) says, "4. An athlete shall not be disqualified if he (a) is pushed or forced by another person to run outside his lane or on or inside the kerb or line marking the applicable border with no material advantage thereby being gained and no other athlete being obstructed."

Here are the revised results which show Lewandowski and Rimmer going 1-2 just as they did at the European champs.
